2 thoughts on “Chinese Zodiac”

Hah! OK, this made me curious. It turns out that I am a “Rooster” (which, by anyone’s guess makes me very old indeed ;-) According to some of the explanations, my personality is described as “A pioneer in spirit. You are devoted to work and quest after knowledge. You are selfish and eccentric.” “Acute, neat, meticulous, organized, self-assured, decisive, conservative, critical, perfectionist, alert, zealous, practical, scientific, responsible. Can be over zealous and critical, puritanical, egotistical, abrasive, opinionated.” No way! I mean, I think I probably am pretty “alert” most of the time (except first thing in the morning — I am totally not a morning person, so how could I possibly be a competent rooster??) but other than that I’d have to claim almost the exact opposites of most of those traits. I guess there must be exceptions — surely not every single person born within a year will share the same characteristics. I would really be a failure as a rooster!

I will definitely have to think about this, Jian Shuo. Maybe I am actually more selfish and eccentric than I’d like to believe!
